Tyreman says local resident Rueben Buhler will appear in provincial court Wednesday on the charges.
The names of the three dead have not yet been released by police.
RCMP officers from four different units were helping Burns Lake Mounties in the investigation.
Burns Lake is located about 1,000 kilometres north of Vancouver.
